Authentic Caboose in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia
This authentic caboose can accommodation up to two guests wanting to getaway on a glamping trip in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia. The interior comes furnished with a queen-size bed, appointed in linens, and a full bathroom with a shower and a toilet.
The living space comes complete with a 32-inch flat-screen television, where guests can watch all their favorite programs together. When guests require some food there is a small kitchenette with a fridge, a microwave, a toaster oven, and a coffee maker. Other amenities include heating and air conditioning to ensure a comfortable stay.
Outside guests can sit on one of the over-sized rockers on the fully-furnished deck, while sipping a toasty cup of coffee and watching the sun set. They will also find a charcoal grill for any tasty evening treats, before enjoying a relaxing soak in the Jacuzzi hot tub, found inside the caboose.
To promote the feeling of serenity, this site is fully decorated as an old railroad station, with typical elements one would find in the industrial days. There are caboose railcars, a depot cabin and authentic mining cars. The cabin looks just like the depot one would find at a train stop, and the cabooses were once fully functioning railcars.
The unit is appointed with heating, air conditioning, a two-person jacuzzi, extended satellite TV with 145 channels and 32" flat screens, a private bathroom, a fridge, a coffee maker, a microwave, a toaster oven, a charcoal grill and decks with over-sized rockers.
All the necessary living supplies to enjoy life in the mountains in Virginia are found in the accommodation themselves. However, if guests have any questions or require anything, the owners are on site at the office. This site has bicycle storage, as well as a parking lot for guests to use.
